8-12-2011: NewsTrust Baltimore

As newspapers shrink and the internet allows each of us to read only the things we each want to be exposed to, how do you discern what news is high quality? That’s the question that NewsTrust set out to answer when they came to Baltimore early this year to start the NewsTrust Baltimore project.

For six months, through the end of July they identified news articles, posted them online and invited people review the quality of the journalism.

Now the project has wrapped up, and we’ve brought some of its leaders together to tell us what they’ve found.
